Beyond the worlds we know lies a universe of wonder and terror. Beyond the bounds of mere humanity lies the perfection of flesh and soul.

Far Beyond Humanity is an expansion of the Uncharted Worlds space opera roleplaying game. It adds alien societies, cybernetics, psionics and much more to the core rules.

The elements in the book are designed to be picked and mixed to customize a campaign setting. Any genre of sci fi can be turned into a campaign with FBH, from intense xeno-politics, to sci fi horror. From dystopian cyberscapes, to giant robot battles against monstrous invaders.

Pick up Far Beyond Humanity, and expand the possibilities of your Uncharted Worlds campaigns beyond the worlds we know.

Hi,
Hey Sean G., Great new material! The possibilities with this material are practically limitless. Great work!

I wanted to alert you to a typo though. Page 80 under Evolved Species example "Fluid" you have the word "spices" instead of species.

Are you going to have this in print at Gen Con? If so what booth?

I love the new content. Very excited to try it out.

I am having a hard time with the section on Vessels though. Is the idea for the content here to replace the content from chapter 10 in the original UW book, or to supplement it, or something else entirely? I have tried to figure out how to map the two different ways of modeling starships together and I am somewhat confused.

Hi! Sorry for the late reply.

Much of FBH is optional "deeper" rules if your campaign really focuses on that stuff. The Vessels section definitely caters to MilitarySF and Gundam-style campaigns, where the construction and customization of ships and other large vehicles is central to the game. So yes, it will replace the more light-weight Starships in Chapter 10 of UW, but the starship combat rules and such still apply to all kinds of Vessels.

Any news on this front? I eagerly want to get my hands on FBH and UW POD books. I just like printed games better.

Fantastic supplement. Tons of content, high quality, cool stuff. One of my only complaints with the original Uncharted Worlds was 'ok sure it can do Firefly, but can it do Star Wars?' Well...now I can do Jedi Knights, I can do bizarre technomancers [...]

These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format

These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
